Omar Hassan

Hell, he’s been on Vans almost longer than anyone not named Omar too! He’s been rocking the Sidestripe for 25-plus years now, and in those two-and-a-half decades he’s managed to see every inch of the globe and shred every type of terrain put in front of him. Omar is the blueprint prototype for the all-terrain skaters we are starting to see more of these days. He’s not a bowl skater or a vert skater or a street skater -- he’s simply a skateboarder and one of the best ever.

Interview

WHAT’S BEEN THE BEST TRIP YOU’VE EVER BEEN ON?

There have been too many trips! I can’t say just one. They’ve all been good experiences.

FAVORITE VANS RIDER?

John Cardiel, for sure. He’s got a lot of soul and heart and he’s an awesome skateboarder.
